I only give yen my opinion. so far as th
house Is concerned, replied Mr. Carlisle
"fhe srntte being republican body, n
ono eau say With accuracy what it is hkel
TO do, believe the next house will I'M
qaesiionably pass a bill to reduce yer,
materially the customs duties. l do not
however. expect to see the passage OF sucl
a bull MS the revenue reform democia
would like to have But think there viii
be substantial reduction. We have nov
arrived at point in tariff agitation wber,
reduction OF taxation is absolutely neces
sary. The large and growing treasury
surplus makes il necessary. There is M
possible way to escape 1t. ALI the methods
proposed IN that direction are, for thu
most part. absurdites. The sentiment
for reduced tariff is growing steadily
especially in the Northwest In the forty
eighth congress ell the republican mem :
beers except one from Minnesota voted foI
the Morrison bill. The gentleman who
refused TO vote with us was not re. elected
AT the last congress we got all but one OF
the Minnesota members. 10 the next con.
Rress the democrats have three members
from Minnesota, something very unusual
This indicates the growth of revenue re =
form A republican senator OF prominence
and ability said to me short time ago that
the next congress must do something to-
ward reducing the tariff, or there would be
au open revolt on the part OF the people.
% the whole the prospect is very encour
aging for the friends OF revenue reform"
rs there any likelihood that the scheme
to repeal the internal revenue taxes will
succeed IL think thare will be no re
peal Of the internal trevenue taxes, and
there certainly ought not to be. Yet il
might occur in the efforts to get through 0
bill reducing the tariff that some compro-
misses should be made. The whiskey tax
should be left undisturbed. You will find
that these tariff reform republicans, OF
whom spoke moment ago, are oil op.
posed to repeating the internal revenue
taxes.

porter, that Mr.. Cevelands adminisira-

servers to form an estimate OF il" Said
Mr.. Carlisle: president Cleveland has
given to the country safe, strong, clear
aud healthy administration. The COM
plants that he has not turned out the re-
publican Office holders as rapidly as he
should are exaggerated. He has acted, as
be honestly believed, for the best interests
of the country and bis party, and you will
iind upon investigation that he IS very
strong With the people. lie has made us

industrious man ever saw. He certainly
works too hard. bnt 1t VII comes from his
